Most YouTube advice was built for full-time creators... not business owners who just want clients. In this conversation, I sit down with Sean Cannell (CEO of Think Media) to break down how a busy business owner can turn YouTube into their #1 salesperson, with as little as one video a week.

No daily posting. No going viral. No complicated funnel. Just the one type of video that actually brings in clients, plus exactly how to package it, where to put the call-to-action, and why a single video can keep selling for you 24/7.
